As I'm sure is clear, this is simply one infected PC that HELOs as `ED'.
Its probably the windoze hostname or similar. You might as well block its IP.

Good stuff.

Sadly we have quite a lot of PCs on campus that HELO this way.

But blocking external mails looks like a go-er.

Unless they've been relayed by some MTA

( where you get that MTA's HELO string )
